I am having install problems under XP: Setup.exe seems to go into an
endless loop while looking for setup.ini.
Here's what happened: We've bundled a new major release of Singular;
it's our release 3-1-0. (The current Singular packages in cygwin are

Hi,

What exactly do you mean by "there is no file installed" and how did you
come to this conclusion? Did you run ssmtp-config? It will set
everything
are you sure that /usr/sbin/ssmtp.exe doesn't exist?

Hi folks,
I have a problem with installing ssmtp. I tried to reinstall ssmtp but
it doesn't help. When I check the status of the package it sayes OK.
Doesn't that mean that all files of the package are installed. But when
I try to list the files of the package no file is found.

No 'setup.log' or 'setup.log.full' files in the directory with 'setup.exe'?
What part of creating the 'cygcheck' information caused you problems?

Completely agree about Vista, it's ruined my life, but are you sure you

You can edit the file directly if you prefer. I was just trying to
provide you with a mechanism which would allow you to regenerate your
/etc/passwd file in the future without needing to re-edit it each time.
But if that's not a concern for you, just run your favorite editor and
have at it! ;-)
Larry,
Thanks for all the help. Sorry to keep beating this
subject down, but I hope this can be my last question.
What problems will I have with simply changing the
path for my home dir in /etc/passwd?
Do I have to use the mkpasswd cmd that you showed

Our NT_Services group here changed some "start-up"

I finally got a chance to upgrade to the 1.3.19-1 cygwin1.dll and
